Marta Panizzut
Marta Panizzut is a postdoc in the Nonlinear Algebra group at TU Berlin. She completed her PhD at KU Leuven under the supervision of Filip Cools and Marc Coppens. Her research interests are in the interactions of combinatorics and algebraic geometry, with a particular focus on tropical geometry. In a recent project with Gabriele Balletti, and Bernd Sturmfels, she studied K3 polytopes. These are polytopes appearing in complements of tropical quartic surfaces.
At TU Berlin she enjoys collaborating with the group Discrete Mathematics/Geometry and learning more about discrete geometry, optimization and software development.
She regularly visits MPI MiS to participate in the many workshops and seminars organized, and to interact with the researchers. While attending the Macaulay2 workshop, she helped developing the package Polyhedra.m2.
